Among household topics none arc
more important than those which relate
to the water supply and the sanitary

far more important that II should be
protected against contamination than
the costlicst gem from the hand of tho
robbcr. For the health and perhaps
the very life OF those dearest to tho

water drawn from its ''crystal depths"

instances which have come under tho

Another source Of danger to tho
health is a damp cellar. One might rs

A damp cellar is an invitation TO those

hygiene records recent case near

fatal consequences Of neglccting this
source of disease numerous examples
might also be given.

work, but look into the matter
promptly and thoroughly. II there is
